Hmm Loki we basically have the same reality tv shows though. High divorce rates butterfly are the result of a gradual eroding of any belief in the insitution of marriage. People are in the west are less religious than they used to be (thank god - hee hee) so the reasons behind marriage become blurred. I for one don't really believe in it. I also disagree with your reasons behind promiscuity. I think it is just a more relaxed attitude to sex exhibiting itself. Once unburdened by the constraints of religion and the like saying this is wrong and that is right people are having more sex with more people because they want to and because it is fun.
